We spent the day watching The Kite Runner (review to follow), having lunch at Rozelle and getting chocolate from Belle Fleur.
Second hand books from the market – three for $25.
Beginning of the tongue photos.
Belle Fleur window display. I love Easter, it’s the chocolate holiday.
Daniel finally came home from the frozen hell that is Eastern Europe, so we had LCC pizza in his honour with Mat and Aya.
Can I really be up to my sixth iPod? Number one was faulty, I sold number two, number three was a 1st gen nano that I flattened in the snow, number four was my lil pink nano (which i still use, BTW), number five was my lovely iPhone (which died as well, I forgot to blog), so yes, this is number six! This baby was a freebie with my new Apple MacBook Pro.
I’ve been raving about the Bite Me burgers to Alec for months, and finally had him try it for himself last night.
Alec’s long arms enable him to take awesome shots like this.
Me and Bev.
Bev loves a freebie.
The men look manly.
Me and Bev take two.
Mmmm Vegetari-Anne burger.
Bev’s meaty burger.
Lisa’s bohemath.
Alec chows down.
Lisa’s burger turns into a full meal.
Yum yum yum.
Bev tells us how she really feels.
Don’t even ask.
Dessert – yummo! Vanilla ice cream and choc biscuit.
Double choc.
Caramel pecan – I think I will get this next time.
Beverly’s camera was lost (and recently found!) in Hong Kong. She hijacked my camera out of camera-deprivation.
I’ve never had teppanyaki before, so it was good practice to try it at the Rocks before going to Japan. We Took Phuongie to The Rocks Teppanyaki for a farewell lunch on a very wet and cold Thursday afternoon.
A seafood entree.
I think Phuong is right to be scared. It looks weird.
My deep fried veges. Does this mean they’re not healthy?
Very obliging chef.
Watch my veges fry!
This bean sprout thing was amazing.
More veges! Very well seasoned.
Big lump of glistening meat for the carnivores out there.
Green tea ice cream. Yuuum.
Some kind of vodka shot.
There are few things I love as much as my mum’s pavlova. She made me one last night – just because. Awww.
I love love this place. We went to Chinta Ria for lunch to welcome a new work colleague – the perfect way to spend a Friday.
Roti – yummmm.
Vege hokkien noodles.
My teams chows down.
The last few winters I have slowly built up my dream shoe collection, which includes lots of boots basically. I realised last winter however that I also have a need for closed-in winter shoes to wear with stockings for work, hence my search for the perfect Mary-Janes.
Hallelujah, thanks to Karina for recommending these beauties from Mollini.
I wasn’t very keen to see this movie based on the previews that had been screening as it looked formulaic, fluffy and boring. I read some decent reviews however and decided to give it a go with Lisa on our movie night.
We were both really pleasantly surprised with how fun and non-cliched it turned out to be.
Will (Ryan Reynolds) is unlucky in love. He has a beautiful daughter who, on the eve of his divorce, wants to know the story about her mother and how they got together. He tells her a story about the three loves of his life, one of whom is her mother, and she has to work out which one her mother is from the story. It sounds cheesy, but is actually adorable, smart, witty and romantic.
I really loved seeing Isla Fisher as one of the love interests – she’s so very Aussie without being ocker. Sassy, adorable and fun – also really tiny!
A definite date movie. I will be going back for seconds!
Alec and I frequently get awesome takeaway from Wi Marn in Chatswood and decided to track them down to eat in-house on Monday night.
Wi Marn is located in Help St, Chatswood, near the station. It’s a delightful place, really traditional Thai decor and very polite attentive staff.
Alec ponders his menu choice.
Vege spring rolls. Crisp and filled with yummy things.
My vege fried rice. Lots of big chunks of veges hidden in there.
Alec’s lemon chicken. He said it was delicious and the sauce smelt amazing.
I would highly recommend this little gem of a place. Alec and I will be back.
